Writing Inspiration

Hello everyone! I hope you are having a wonderful Monday! Today for my writing inspiration, I wanted to share with you all one of my favorite poems by famous 20th Century poet, Robert Frost. I actually came across this poem during my literature reading for school a few weeks ago, and just had to share it with you all. Let me know what you think about this poem! I hope it inspires you as much as it did me!

The Road Not Taken

By: Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
